I say if you have the money and time to do undergrad studies right after high school, by all means as not every one will have that opportunity. something always happens ti make you forego. This is also so you can start your carreer as early as possible.

What Nina is currently thinking:

“There’s this passage I got memorized.

Ezekiel 23:19

“Yet she multiplied her harlotries, remembering the days of her youth, when she played the harlot in the land of Egypt. She lusted after their paramours, whose flesh is like the flesh of donkeys and whose issue is like the issue of horses.

I been saying that shit for years. And if you heard it, that meant your ass (get it? An ass is like a donkey). I never gave much thought to what it meant. I just thought it was some cold-blooded shit to say to a motherfucker ‘fore I popped a cap in his ass (hiyoooo! The double entendres keep flowing). But I saw some shit this mornin’ made me think different.

See, now I’m thinking, maybe it means you’re the harlot in the land of Egypt, and I’m the Donkey, and Mr. 9mm here, he’s the ‘issues’ covering my donkey ass in the valley of darkness. Or, it could mean you’re the donkey and I’m the paramours and it’s the world that’s the flesh of a donkey who issues like a horse. I’d like that. But that shit ain’t the truth. The truth is, you’re the paramours, and I’m the harlot. But I’m tryin’, Jacob and Issac. I’m trying real hard to be the harlot.”

Stage Direction: Nina gets up from the Diner table and with Mr. 9mm’s help “issues” into and all over Jacob and Issac. Turns to Sarah…

Nina: “Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa… stop right there. Eatin’ a bitch out, and givin’ a bitch a foot massage ain’t even the same fuckin’ thing.”

Nina, I too hope you can find solace for your prostitutional ways in the wise words of Exodus:

“But Zipporah took a flint knife, cut off her son’s foreskin and touched [Moses'] feet with it. ‘Surely you are a bridegroom of blood to me,’ she said.” Exodus 4:25.

There’s more where that came from.

Nina Fowler I implore you to pray and read your Bible. From what I have read you are a troubled young woman sunk deep in sin. It is of no use for you to try to save the world with your meaningless scribblings; for “Satan is the ruler of this world” John 12:31.

I think uni’s do need to move with the times. But…they are not school, they are not training and yes I agree they are not for everyone.

The high brow stuff IS necessary because ‘ideas inform actions’. If you don’t have an idea about how ideas are formed then you can’t out think problems and have a critical understanding of the underlying assumptions that people often take for granted.

If you go to uni’ and hope it isn’t an intellectual endevour that’s like going to MacDonalds and hoping you won’t get burgers.
